I really wish the modifier colored pipe key was included with the base kit, without forcing you to buy a $90 addon kit for just that key.  Having that key for aesthetics is huge for me and it not being in base kit is a near deal breaker.

Some recent GB included a second B key, what is that for? I know it is a silly question, but it really seems to be superfluous.

The second B is for Alice-style layout keyboards which have Bs on both sides of the ergonomic/split layout.

Alright, thank you. I have not been even aware of such need.

10 days left for the Dolch R5 group-buy! Please keep in mind that the GB will close at midnight (CT) on September 4, 2020! :eek:

Base kit - 200
Extension kit - 94
Hangul kit - 64
RAMA Cherry - 107

It's certain that we will be producing all kits! There are some exciting artisan keycap collaborations to be announced soon as well -- I am working closely with several artisan keycap makers at the time. These sales may occur even after the keyset group-buy is over, so please do stay tuned for more news. Consider GMK Dolch R5 if you'd like a matching set for these keys.

Thank you all for the support thus far! :thumb:

It closes at the end of September 4th, so one minute after 23:59 CT, right?

Wikipedia explains the reason I'm asking: "Midnight marks the beginning and ending of each day in civil time throughout the world. As the dividing point between one day and another, midnight defies easy classification as either part of the preceding day or of the following day."

Hah, yes, so on the night of Friday, September 4th.

Chances are that it may be open til the morning after, but if I were a prospective buyer, I wouldn't risk it.

Yeah quite annoying that there are only one 1u Ctrl & Alt in base kit. Have to purchase 60€ kit for two keycaps :(

And just like that, it is already the LAST DAY to purchase GMK Dolch R5. This is the last push! If you have been waiting until today, today is your last chance at this classic colorway. Here are our current numbers (no extras incl.):

Base kit - 349
Extension kit - 170
Hangul kit - 96
RAMA Cherry - 153

Also support OG Spacekeys R2 that is being run by hineybush and the same other regional vendors. Today is the last day for those as well.

Don't forget also that tonight there will be an ArtKey Dolch R5 Bull v2 and Devourer sale tonight (9/4) at 10pm Eastern Time US.
And there are yet more artisan keycap collaborations whose sales are yet to be announced! Makers have been in touch with me and these sales will happen even after the GB has closed. So if you are interested in this colorway from artisan makers, don't miss your chance to grab a Dolch R5 set to match!

Those of you who have been avidly supporting this endeavor of mine over the past year as well as those who have just gotten to (re)discover the classic Dolch and have offered your support and enthusiasm, it really means so much for me. Thank you!!! :thumb:

I was expecting greater numbers. This is quite disappointing tbh.

On the other hand, I guess my set will be more exclusive ;)

I think it's due to the fact that there's also Modern Dolch and people like that keyset more because it being a bit cooler in tone. Dolch R5 might not break any sales records but others will still feel sad once it shows up on GB participants boards! :D

Good work for meeting up the MOQ.

August has been a tough month since there’s many hyped sets like Bento, Minimal and Shoko running at the same time.

So true. I got all sets + Rama. Not that I can read, speak, or remotely understand Korean, but I think it's a great looking addition and I'd hate myself if I missed this opportunity. I always wanted a Dolch set, and this is the best one ever put together.

Have you tried R5 bottom row? I'm going in because 1) I'm needing a keyset down the road and want to support LightningXI as he's a sweety; 2) FOMO; 3) That sweet sweet R5 bottom row.

I don't have that many keycap sets yet, none have R0 or R5. But as I also plan to get GMK Think, even if I don't like the R5, I can simply swap out the R5 keys for R4. There's no risk in it for me ;).

I also have only a couple of sets (GMK WoB and GMK 9009 R3, one EPBT blank set) so I'm no expert in various keycap profiles but... I used WoB and then I received 9009 R3 with the R5 bottom row keys and... there's just something subtle but very nice in it. IMO R5 should be the default option, dunno why it's not more common in other GBs.

Bummed to have missed this, I guess I need to check in to these forums more often. Was hoping to pick up a Dolch set from Originative soon but looks like they have pushed the order to March of next year now. My current GMK Dolch set is looking a bit worn....

There will be plenty of extras when this set has shipped to customers. I'll try my best to keep this thread informed. If not, just sign up for Project Keyboard's newsletter and that'll be the best way to keep track (if you're in the US). If elsewhere, check the main post for your regional vendor.

Will there be a Preorder on Project Keyboard? Or did it already happen and everything sold out?  :)

Oh whoops. Yes you are right. I’m surprised it’s not up on the preorder page.

To quote myself in the OP:
Quote
Extension - includes extra keys so that you can have two modifier sets to dress up two keyboards (e.g. TKL/1800 + 60/65%) by reusing modifiers. You will not have enough for two full-size keyboards or two TKLs.

Hangul - further extend Dolch usage, now with Korean language sublegends -- if you purchase ALL 3 kits, you may equip two keyboards fully with Dolch (e.g. TKL/1800 + 60/65).

Originative Dolch group buy ended 4/10/2020 and they are now saying ETA of June 2021.

Since this group buy ended 9/4/2020 (5 months later), does that mean ETA on this one is November 2021 now from GMK?

I'll check in with an update, but assuming that it'd be around then would be a fair assumption (unfortunately). GMK is slammed with group-buys and has had many production delays so it's an unfortunate consequence of it.

Isn't that a bit too much ? I mean all other delivered late but not as late. Unless there is some kinda gmk priority system. I would expect this at Septermber-October, unless more delays

Better to just assume later and be happy if we get it earlier.

I'll ask them to update it to a more conservative estimate. That's probably not happening too soon. There's at least 25 keysets that ran before/simultaneously as Dolch R5 that haven't shipped.

UPDATE!

ProjectKeyboard has received the 2nd custom teal/turquoise color sample and it comes very close to what I had envisioned. We've approved the samples.

That is all for now. Will post more when there is more news regarding production. Cheers!
